It may not be your tires that are the issue. Have them check the rims to see if they are true and centered. I have seen rims with the holes off center. You also could have a bent rim. You need to spin your tires with the axle jacked up and watch each wheel for runout and etc. all I am saying is just don't assume it is the tires.

I have run 3 sets of Michelins and have never had to balance anything. I do have a very slight vibration in my PW just above 40 MPH. It is in the front end somewhere as it never changes no matter what tires are on the truck. It may be the front axle as joint at the end of the axle exploded at one time. The inside of the ball and the axle end are deeply gouged and torn up. Something may have bent and is out of alignment which allows some movement thus vibration.
